Dear Mom,

‘If you just found out your baby has Down syndrome, I want you to know something: it’s okay to feel all of it 🤍

It’s okay to feel sad.
It’s okay to feel scared.
It’s okay to grieve the picture of motherhood you thought you were going to have.
It’s okay to have questions, uncertainty, and a million different emotions all at once.

I was there last year. I remember the fear and the unknown. I remember wondering what our life would look like and whether I was ready for everything ahead.

But now, I look at my sweet Charlotte and wish I could go back and tell myself that there was so much love and joy waiting for me on the other side of that fear.

And I don’t say that because I’m naive to the challenges. Will there be challenges we have to face? Yes. There already have been, and I know there may be more ahead. But I’ve learned that challenges and joy can exist at the same time. The hard moments don’t take away from the beautiful ones, and a Down syndrome diagnosis doesn’t mean a life without joy 🤍

Your baby is going to show you a kind of love you never knew existed. And you are not walking into this alone.

There is an incredible community of families who understand, who will answer your questions, celebrate your baby, support you through the hard days, and welcome you with open arms 🤍

So if you just received this diagnosis, take a breath. Give yourself permission to feel whatever you’re feeling.

You don’t have to have it all figured out today.

There is so much more joy ahead than you can see right now 💙💛’

A diagnosis can come with so many feelings, questions, and unknowns. Dear Mom, you don’t have to process everything or figure out the whole future today. Take it one moment at a time, and know there is an entire community here to walk beside you 🤍

What do you wish someone had told you after receiving your child’s diagnosis?
